Wow, 36,000 people in the first two nights! They expect to mobilize 350,000 people with every show, and with her attending every a-nation this number will probably 600,000 or so. GOOD JOB, AYU.
That's pretty much what I guessed. It looked like she was using the 18,000 seat configuration of Saitama.

Saitama Super Arena is actually one of the best concert venues in Japan for accoustics. It actually was not that loud compared to many concerts - I was sitting in A-Block and my hearing wasn't effected at all after the show; so actually sound wise this concert was kind of tame. You are right about sound covering the vocals though, sometimes the best way to get a true sense of how the vocals really sound is to plug both ears - that dulls a lot of the instrument sound and you can hear her vocals much more clearly.

btw about the photos: I'm just in the night photo, not the day one cause I had to work. So no painting fishies for me.
